It wasn't. During the 1990's Mexico was going through a process of economic liberalization, including privatization of state-controlled industries, as well as opening to international trade and business. NAFTA was just one of many policies implemented by the Mexican government towards that end.

It allows Mexico to trade with North America which is where a large portion of our goods are bought from, also a big role in Mexico's economy. Because of the cheap labor in Mexico a pair a shoes at your local Nike stores are only 100$, if made in America they would be probably double the price.

As part of NAFTA, Mexico provided cheaper labor costs and negligible tariffs for assembled items in Mexico with American and Canadian components. These plants, known as "maquiladoras", assemble many kinds of products, from household items to motor vehicles to aircraft parts. This boosted employment and internal market growth, as some of these maquiladoras also started to certify local OEMs for parts and manufacturing processes (i.e. paint jobs and maintenance, eventually going up to quality assurance and design).
